Let's list all the things we're doing to promote our sites. I'll go first:

Writing original content
SEO
Paid advertising on Google and MSN
Posting on other people's blogs
newsletters
radio interviews
Doing nice things for other people

doing nice things for other people is kind of BIG

here is mine, in my sig here on EF and other forums,
writing breaking news
taking part in competitions

Mainly through SEO. I haven't gotten into posting on other people's blogs, simply because I haven't had time. I have probably only posted on one, and that was by invitation for the Houston Texan's fan blog to do a fantasy football preview this year.

I have never benefitted form advertising with adwords or overture, but that goes on a case by case basis. It works for many, has just never really worked for me.

I did one radio show last year as a guest. It did help with traffic at least temporarily. Must say I was nervous as hell leading up to that show.

I do nice things for people whenever possible. I believe what goes around comes around. If someone needs help with something, and I have the time and ability, I will most always do it.

so what kind of sites do u run mike?

**peterk** · 07-25-2006, 04:48 PM

I try SEO, post in forums with my link in the sig, word of mouth. My sites are still new though so they have not all paid off yet, though in some of my other sites they have.

Word of Mouth

**imported_DaveTurnbull** · 07-29-2006, 12:25 AM

search engines (mainly Google of course), forums (mainly just for the launch of sites), and digg.
I never pay for advertising - why pay for stuff that you can get for free?!
